contents Using Schwinger-Keldysh field theory (SKFT), we engineer a dissipative and driven (i.e., out of equilibrium) bosonic bath acting on classical localized spins within a ferromagnetic insulator (FI) layer whose dynamics is governed by the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation, as is usually assumed in spintronics and magnonics. The bosonic bath is comprised of quantum magnons within a layer of altermagnetic insulator (AMI) that is attached to a conventional FI layer, often one of the key ingredients within spintronic and magnonic multilayers, so that interaction between slow classical (in the FI layer) and fast quantum (in the AMI layer) localized spins ensues. Such a bath, including its driving to produce a nonequilibrium distribution of altermagnetic magnons, generates a rich structure of the SKFT-derived extended LLG equation for classical spins within the FI layer. Our LLG equation contains two damping terms, both of which are spatially nonlocal and anisotropic, while one of them is also intrinsically non-Markovian, i.e., nonlocal in time. We demonstrate how to exploit these terms for tuning spintronic and magnonic effects within the FI layer of AMI/FI bilayers that involve spin wave or domain wall propagation, as well as skyrmion annihilation.
